I like that idea 'cuz it will NOT work in my browser! You will only
annoy IE users. I also recall your cannot script it to turn on or off
the sound like Netscape's attempt at this with EMBED, it is background
sound *only* where you can control the looping and initial delay in
playing when the pages loads. Also your document will not validate with
BGSOUND element it was never part of HTML.
